Maybe the soft top version of the 1948 Ford Prefect? That has the doors swinging the right way and has that swage line below the drop pane?

It's looking like this may actually be a Wolseley 10...

I was going to say Riley RM (B?) but noticed it's not a split screen
The glass in the passenger door is also full width, so not a late 30's Morris 8 either

This is really gonna bug the crap out of me now! :lol:
Landrovers and Welding go together like Bread and Butter. And in the wet they are about as structurally sound

Biting. It's like kissing except there's a winner

Wolseley Series III New Ten 1939 -48.

John, the door handle is at the front, so the door is hinged on the "B" post.

:drool: :drool: :drool: Ooh that's nice! Funny how they managed to find so much more legroom in small cars back then. You'd probably need something about 17 feet long these days to get that much space. :|

You are of course correct, can we call that a blond moment on my part please? I prefer that to the term senile dementia. :oops: :|
